First day of school

Today was the first day of the new school year.  My big baby is now officially in sixth grade!  My littlest baby is a big third grader!  My kids have gotten SO big!  It is not fair that they are growing up so fast.  I know that all parents say this, but they do grow up too fast!  It just seems like yesterday they were babies.  As much as I love seeing them grow up and turn in to amazing little people, this process should go a little bit slower.

Princess had a wonderful day today.  She loves her teacher, and loved seeing all of her friends again.  She actually seems jazzed to go to school tomorrow, which is a HUGE improvement.  She has not liked school the last little bit, so I am so happy she is getting excited about it. 

Prince has the same teacher again this year, she moved up into sixth grade with the kids!  He loves her, and is very happy to have the same teacher again.  I love the fact that she knows Prince and is great with him!  (Although I LOVE the other sixth grade teacher too, and she would have done great with Prince as well!)

Today was also the first day of the new school year for me at work as well.  Most of you know that I work at the kids' school, but you might not realize that as of last week, I am now no longer a substitute, but am a Teaching Assistant.  I get the privilege of working with a phenomenal first grade teacher and 26 sweet first graders every day!  I love my job, and the children that I get to see grow and flourish!  I can not wait to go back tomorrow!
